Here's the music lineup on Philly stages

Live music and more, tonight through Thursday, compiled by Shaun Brady, Tom Di Nardo, James Johnson, Sara Sherr and Jonathan Takiff.

Flipron: This comedy in music (hall) act from across the big pond is free to enjoy early tonight. Think the Kinks meet Bonzo Dog at Russell Brand's house, as they flip through "The Book of Lies" and brag about their fans, "The Coolest Names in Showbiz." Upstairs at World Cafe Live, 3025 Walnut St., 6:30 tonight, free, 215-222-1400, www.worldcafelive.com.

Over the Rhine: Married in life and music, Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist offer up an especially poignant, atmospheric brand of chamber pop. World Cafe Live, 3025 Walnut St. 7:30 tonight, $30-$40, 215-222-1400, www.worldcafelive.com.

Sea Wolf: Alex Brown Church is the fervent front man of this sweeping, shape-shifting indie pop band, and on this acoustic tour he's running as a lone-wolf balladeer. If you like arty storytellers like Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst and the Decemberists' Colin Meloy, he's worth catching. With Sera Cahoone and Patrick Park. North Star, 27th and Poplar streets, 9 p.m. tomorrow, $12, 215-787-0488, www.northstarbar.com.

Rascal Flatts: Country dudes offer up their little bit of soul, whole lot of lovin' twang pop on a bill with Kellie Pickler (of "American Idol" fame) and Chris Young. Susquehanna Bank Center, 1 Harbour Blvd., Camden, 7:30 p.m. tomorrow, $99, $73.25, $32.50 (lawn), $20.50 (4-pack lawn individually), 800-745-3000, www.livenation.com.

Griffin House: Folksy singer-songwriter offers romantic life lessons worth humming along with. House may be name dropping Tom Petty on the lead track of his latest ("The Learner") album, but Jackson Browne is more his spiritual kin. World Cafe Live, 3025 Walnut St., 9 p.m. Sunday, $19/$21, 215-222-1400, www.worldcafelive.com.

Chad & Jeremy: This balmy, breezy folk-pop duo of the British Invasion era slides in under the seasonal wire to reprise hits like "A Summer Song." Sellersville Theater, Main and Temple streets, Sellersville, 7:30 p.m. Sunday, $33, 215-257-5808, www.st94.com.

The Gourds: Alt-country rockers' good-time cup runneth over, like a cross between the Band, Little Feat and Los Lobos. Also playing - Shinyribs. North Star, 27th and Poplar streets, 8 p.m. Monday, $15, 215-787-0488, www.northstarbar.com.

The Lights Out: Boston rockers could knock yours out with their clean punches. Those anthemic, pop-rockin' tunes, harmonies and guitar riffs are catchy. Then they catch you off guard with lyrics about dangerous types - bounty hunters, dudes holding up the corner store, getting scorched by a volcano. With kindred spirits Dive, the Better Half and Phantasm. Blockley Pourhouse, 3801 Chestnut St., 9 p.m. Wednesday, $7, 222-1234, www.theblockley.com.

Jenny and Johnny/Superchunk: What a cool bill. Newly debuting as a duo with their well-received "I'm Having Fun Now" set, Jenny Lewis (Rilo Kiley) and boyfriend Johnathan Rice harmonize sweetly while ruminating cynically. Think a next generation, coed Simon and Garfunkel. Meanwhile, show co-stars Superchunk are sometimes sounding like the second coming of the Replacements on their chunky-chorded, rhythmic-rockin' new "Majesty Shredding" long player. (Buy both CDs in the lobby!) Trocadero, 10th and Arch streets, 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, $19, 215-922-6888, www.thetroc.com.

Electric Six: Vamping Detroit dance rockers prove that flash and trash do make fire. Didn't mom tell you not to poke your fingers in the outlets? With the Constellations and Boy Wonder. Johnny Brenda's, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 9 p.m. Wednesday, $15, 215-739-9684, www.johnnybrendas.com.

Mark Olson: Briery-voiced veteran of the Americana scene (as co-founder/leader of the Jayhawks) serves up weary-toned originals from his brand new "Many Colored Kite" album - plus catalog faves, natch. Vandaveer opens. World Cafe Live, 3025 Walnut St., 8 p.m. Wednesday $18/$20, 215-222-1400, www.worldcafelive.com.

Joan Soriano: Growing up in a Dominican farming village, Soriano made his first guitar from a discarded metal box and fishing wire. He's come a long way, though there's still a piercing metallic tone in his playing and a charming, homemade quality to his lilting bachata music, which draws on influences from Africa, Europe and Latin America. Crossroads Concerts series at Cavalry United Methodist Church, 801 South 48th St. (at Baltimore Avenue), 7:30 p.m. Thursday, $10-$30 215-729-1029, www.crossroadsconcerts.org.

Andrew Rose Gregory: He's one quarter of Internet sensations the Gregory Brothers, creators of the hugely popular (multimillion hits) musical viral series "Auto-Tune the News," with constructs like "Bed Intruder Song" and "Strut That Ass." The premise is clever transformations of spoken sound bites into hip-hop flavored tunes, transforming politicians, TV anchors and everyday ranters into singing fools. But be warned: Live performances by the bros (alone and collective) are more in the blue-eyed soul and sensitive folkie veins. Here, Gregory (with brother Evan and sister-in-law Sarah) opens for the Welcome Wagon, Birdie Busch and Hezekiah Jones. Johnny Brenda's 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 8 tonight, $10, 215-739-9684, www.johnnybrendas.com.
